[The use of fixed expanders with orthodontic miniscrews support in children with mesial occlusion]. / Ispol'zovanie nes"emnykh rasshiritelei s vnutrikostnoi oporoi u detei s mezial'noi okklyuziei.

OBJECTIVE: Prevention of the development of pronounced skeletal abnormalities in patients with mesial occlusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Biometric analysis of control and diagnostic models of dentition was performed in 60 patients with dental anomalies before and after treatment in 3 mutually perpendicular planes to identify violations in the formation of dental arches by sagittal and transversal dimensions, and alveolar processes - by vertical dimensions (methods of A. Pont, G. Korkhaus). Measurements of 23 parameters of TRG and sections of CBCT were carried out using the modified Nad-Ars technique with analysis of skeletal parameters before and after treatment. Treatment was carried out using dilators for the upper jaw in combination with a facial mask and further dynamic observation using active retention devices. RESULTS: The results of treatment showed an increase in the length of the anterior segment of the upper dental arch by 2.8±0.55 mm (p<0.05 mm); expansion in the area of temporary molars by 2.85±0.65 mm (p<0.05); in the area of permanent molars by 2.75±0.55 mm (p<0.05); in the area of the apical basis of HF by 3.82±0.45 mm (p<0.05). The length of the lower dental arch in the anterior segment has not changed. Analysis of TRG parameters showed a significant increase in the values of

[The use of distal occlusion correctors during treatment on an individual lingual bracket system in adult patients]. / Primenenie korrektorov distal'noi okklyuzii pri lechenii s ispol'zovaniem individual'noi lingval'noi breket-sistemy u vzroslykh patsientov.

A case of treatment of a 35-year-old patient with a retroposition of the lower jaw, distal occlusion of the posterior teeth, deep incisal overlap, narrowing of the deformity of the dentoalveolar arches, protrusion of the lower incisors, crowded position of the teeth, mismatch between the incisor lines, absence due to extraction of tooth 3.6, with impacted dystopic tooth 3.8 is presented. Fixed individual orthodontic appliances of the WIN («DW Lingual Systems GmbH¼ Germany) were used. It was found that the use of the Herbst apparatus in combination with the WIN lingual bracket system in adult patients helps to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic results. The use of a distal bite correction device is an additional support for the mesialization of the molars of the lower jaw.

[Orthodontic treatment as a stage of rational dental prosthetics]. / Ortodonticheskoe lechenie kak etap podgotovki k ratsional'nomu zubnomu protezirovaniyu.

OBJECTIVE: To improving the effectiveness of complex treatment of adult patients with the absence of individual teeth. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Clinical and radiological examination and comprehensive treatment of 37 patients with dental anomalies and the absence of individual teeth were carried out, 24 of them were women (average age 35 years), 13 men (average age 38 years). The patients were divided into two groups: the 1st group - 22 patients with distal occlusion; the 2nd group - 15 patients with mesial occlusion. RESULTS: The results of the developed algorithms for the complex treatment of patients with dental anomalies and the absence of individual teeth during the bite of permanent teeth are presented on a clinical example. The complex treatment included orthodontic treatment using a bracket system, functional fixed telescopic appliance, orthodontic mini screws for bone support and further rational prosthetics. After conducting a clinical and radiological examination and analyzing the data obtained, an individual patient treatment plan was developed, which included orthodontic and orthopedic stages. Orthodontic treatment made it possible to normalize the position of the teeth, the shape of the dental alveolar arches, occlusal planes, improve the bite, which made it possible to prepare the patient for rational prosthetics. The chosen treatment plan was optimal and correct for this patient: all the tasks were solved with changes not only at the dental alveolar level, a stable dental ratio was achieved and not only dental, but also facial parameters were improved. CONCLUSION: Orthodontic preparation of adult patients before orthopedic treatment significantly improves the quality of orthopedic treatment and allows to achieve the most stable functional and aesthetic results.

[Algorithms for orthodontic treatment of patients with maxillary constriction based on the stages of formation of the palatal suture]. / Algoritmy ortodonticheskogo lecheniya patsientov s suzheniem verkhnei chelyusti na osnovanii stadii formirovaniya sredinnogo nebnogo shva.

THE AIM OF THE STUDY: Improving the effectiveness of complex orthodontic treatment of patients with constriction and deformation of the upper jaw during the period of replacement and permanent bite based on the analysis of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The results of complex treatment of 70 patients with constriction and deformation of the upper jaw during the period of temporary and permanent bite are presented. The patients were divided into groups according to the stage of formation of the midpalatal suture: 1st group - 40 patients with stage «A¼ and «B¼ (average age 11.5 years); 2nd group - 15 patients with stage «C¼ (average age 20.5 years); 3rd group - 15 patients with stage «D¼ and «E¼ (average age 24.5 years). Orthodontic treatment was carried out using palatine expanders with a dental and intraosseous type of fixation. The complex treatment consisted of: orthodontic treatment using a bracket system, transgingival laser corticotomy, piezocorticotomy, surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion, orthodontic appliances for the expansion of the upper jaw. After conducting a clinical X-ray examination of all patients and analyzing the data obtained, we developed algorithms for therapeutic measures. RESULTS: As a result of the diagnosis and treatment planning, the expansion of the upper jaw was achieved both at the dental alveolar and skeletal levels. Detailed algorithms of complex treatment were developed based on the analysis of CBCT data, the stage of formation of the midpalatal suture individually for each patient. CONCLUSION: It was found that the analysis of CBCT data makes it possible to choose the optimal treatment method for patients with skeletal deformities of the dentition complex, thereby increasing the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment.

CONCLUSION: It was found that a comprehensive approach with minimally invasive effects can improve the effectiveness of treatment of patients with constriction and deformation of the upper jaw during the period of permanent bite and achieve stable treatment results.

[Tongue position assessment in patients before and after maxilla expansion]. / Otsenka polozheniya yazyka u patsientov s suzheniem verkhnei chelyusti do i posle ee rasshireniya.

The aim of this research is to increase the accuracy of determining the position of the tongue, the amount of space occupied by the tongue and space, free from tongue, increase of efficiency of diagnostics of dentofacial anomalies in patients based on CBCT analysis-the study of the skull conducted in transversal, sagittal and coronal planes. Clinical and x-ray examination and orthodontic treatment were carried out in 120 patients with anomalies of the dentition complex. Patients were divided into three groups. Group 1 - 30 patients aged 5 to 11 years. Group 2 - 50 patients aged 12 to 17 years. Group 3 - 40 patients aged 18 to 40 years. All patients underwent CT examination of the skull before treatment, and during the retention period of treatment. After a diagnostic examination of the proposed method for diagnosing the anatomical and functional state of the dentition complex and drawing up a treatment plan, all patients underwent orthodontic treatment, which consisted in the expansion of the upper jaw using various orthodontic appliances for expansion. This method allows to identify anomalies in the position of the tongue before and after orthodontic treatment, to assess the quality of orthodontic treatment, based on the analysis of not only the tongue filling the space of the dome of the palate, but also the position of the bone structures of the skull in three planes. The high quality of the study allows us to give a reliable assessment of the state of maxillofacial structures: the position of the upper and lower jaws, inclination of teeth, the stage of formation of the patient's growth, airway lumen and the influence of tongue on these structures at different stages of development of the maxillofacial skull. When comparing the results of the study, not all patients carried out recovered the anatomical and functional balance of the maxillofacial complex after orthodontic treatment, suggesting the need for more myogymnastics of the tongue before, during, and after treatment.

[Complex orthodontic-surgical rehabilitation of adults with malocclusions and deformations in dentition]. / Kombinirovannoe ortodonto-khirurgicheskoe lechenie vzroslykh patsientov s zubochelyustnymi anomaliyami i deformatsiyami zubnykh ryadov.

The aim of the study was the development and substantiation of the method of orthodontic treatment of patients with malocclusions and deformities of dentoalveolar arches with the combined use of braces, orthodontic miniscrew, piezo-surgical corticotomy or laser corticotomy to improve the efficiency and reduce the time of complex treatment. The results of complex rehabilitation of 80 adult patients with dentoalveolar anomalies and deformities of dentition are presented. As a result of the orthodontic treatment of patients who underwent piezo-surgical corticotomy the bodily movement of the posterior teeth in the area of the previously removed tooth was achieved. After piezo-surgical or laser corticotomy the rate of tooth protraction remained elevated for 3 to 5 months (on average 0.3±0.5 mm/month), then gradually decreased. Piezo-surgical corticotomy led to a decrease in bone density, which was measured on the Hounsfield scale. As a result of orthodontic treatment in patients who underwent laser corticotomy an expansion of the upper jaw and normalization of occlusion in the transversal and sagittal directions was achieved: in the region of the hard palate by 7.1±0.4 mm; in the region of the alveolar bone by 6.5±0.5 mm; in the region of the roots of molars by 6.4±0.9 mm; in the area of crowns of molars by 8.3±0.7 mm. It was found that the combined use of piezo-surgical corticotomy and orthodontic miniscrews improve the efficiency and reduce the duration of orthodontic treatment by 3 to 6 months.

[Efficiency of orthodontic treatment in combination with surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion]. / Éffektivnost' ortodonticheskogo lecheniia patsientov s verkhnei mikrognatiei v kombinatsii s khirurgicheski assistirovannym bystrym nebnym rasshireniem.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of combined orthodontic and surgical treatment of patients with maxillary transverse deficiency. Forty cone-beam computed tomograms (CBCT) were examined in 20 patients (mean age 23.5 years) who underwent surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion using a tooth-borne appliance (n=10) and a bone-borne appliance (n=10). Evaluation of the effectiveness of skeletal expansion was carried out with the help of cephalometric analysis of the width of the upper jaw in the coronary projection on the CBCT by 22 parameters. Analysis of the degree of skeletal expansion of the upper jaw before treatment and after removal of the expander allowed to assess the degree of expansion of the upper jaw at different bone levels. Surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion allows to achieve stable skeletal expansion of the upper jaw in the transverse direction with minimal risk of long-term relapse.
